    Mercedes-Benz GLA200 2014: Should I be using a diesel fuel particulate conditioner?
    Answered by Graham Smith · 31 October 2019

    Answered by Graham Smith · 3 January 2019

    The warranty expired a year ago now, and had expired when you approached Mercedes about it last April. Talk to Mercedes and try to enlist their help, but I doubt you will have any success.

    Will a Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class go off-road?
    Answered by Graham Smith · 19 July 2018

    It depends on what you plan to do with it. If you want to tour along bush tracks it will do the job well, but if you want to drive down deeply rutted, rocky tracks then park it and get something better for that type of work.

    If that’s what you want then look at a serious off-roader.

    Best car for me and my grandchildren
    Answered by Paul Gover · 4 September 2016

    The GLA is my favourite in the Mercedes-Benz baby-car line-up and it gets The Tick. But you should also test drive the new Infiniti Q30 and QX30, which share the mechanical package of the A-Class family but with a little more comfort.

    Family SUV for $50k?
    Answered by Paul Gover · 7 March 2016

    For me, your best choice would be a Mercedes-Benz GLA (above left). It is the SUV of the baby Benz range, with good space and comfort, the space, safety and seats you need with a hatch to get access to the boot. It definitely gets The Tick from me.

    Answered by Carsguide.com.au · 28 February 2016

    The GLA is actually my favourite of all the baby Mercedes-Benz models and I reckon it should suit her fine. It gets The Tick from me.

    You are exactly right, which is why we're making a fuss about cars that do not have a standard camera.
